8. Self Organization in Biomolecular Systems Simulating the folding and aggregation of peptides proteins and lipids. Thermodynamic Properties of Biomolecules Free energy calculations, ligand design, force field refinement. Protein Structure Prediction and Refinement Structural Proteomics. Non-equilibrium protein dynamics Signal transduction, cell surface receptors, mechanoselective pores.

9. The Model (force field) The model must encompass the property of interest Time Scale. The simulation time >> time scale of the process to be investigated Factors that Determine Reliability

10. The Model (force field) Is the model fitted to the property of interest? Time Scale. Is the process spontaneous or enforced? Know what is reality. Are we fitting to just another model? To Match Reality
